H Pylori and Candida

by Faheem

Hi,
I have had symptoms of Candida Albican for a number of years but could not find a Doctor or a lab test in my country to confirm that I had it.

Recently people complained that I had breath and should go see my dentist.
He wrote three tests

1. Liver Function Test

2. H pylori blood antigen

3. HbA1C



I came positive with H Pylori as normal out of range was less then 25 and I was 180.
Also my Gamma gt was elevated. On the otherhand HbA1C was pretty good at less then 5.



With these results I went to an Internist who prescribed the triple therapy. He also suspects that I have a fatty liver and asked me to get an ultrasound which I haven't done as yet.



I am on my second week of triple therapy and a bad Diahrea has started.

Now my question to you is that if I have Candida will it also be controlled by triple therapy?
I know H Pylori is a bacteria while Candida is a Yeast infection but I have read that Antibiotics kill the gut flora.

Best regards
